Company mission
To build a better web browser— one that enables people to build their own home on the internet, and arms them with the tools they need to be more focused, organized, and in control.
Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of experience in technical program management, developer relations, developer-facing product work, or a comparable blend of these. Non-traditional backgrounds welcome; we care about what you've shipped, not where your career started
- Technical fluency. You don't need to be a compiler expert, but you can follow a conversation about debug info, runtime components, and toolchain architecture and ask the right questions
- Organizational follow-through. You can wrangle a large backlog into something structured and trackable. Things don't fall through cracks on your watch
- Initiative on partnerships. You have a track record of spotting opportunities and acting on them without being asked
- You thrive in a high-trust, high-ambiguity environment: you seek feedback, but you don't need hand-holding
Desirable
- Evangelism that's intrinsic. This role builds cross-platform Swift's public presence from scratch. You write blog posts and build demos because you find real value in getting the right ideas in front of the right people
- Direct experience navigating large platform vendor relationships
- Experience with compiler toolchains, language runtimes, or low-level systems work
- Open-source community leadership: maintaining projects, building contributor communities, running events
What the job involves
- As a Technical Program Manager on the Toolchain team, your first priority is keeping Dia moving
- You'll make sure the cross-platform Swift infrastructure stays ahead of what Dia needs
- You'll also own the Apple relationship, run Swift core team meetings, and grow the platform's reach
- More companies building on it means more contributions flowing back and a stronger foundation for everything we ship
- Externally, you're the person developers and partners reach out to when they want to build with Swift beyond Apple platforms
- Internally, you turn a large backlog and a brilliant technical vision into shipped outcomes on a predictable cadence
- You'll report to the CTO and work directly with the technical lead who's driven this work for many years
- Own the operational cadence for the Toolchain team. Work with the technical lead to shape a rich pipeline of ideas into concrete plans on 2-3 month horizons
- Stand up the right rituals and tracking so the team ships predictably without bureaucratic drag
- Be the connective tissue between Toolchain and the Dia on Windows team. When Dia needs a compiler fix, a runtime improvement, or a new capability, you make sure it doesn't stall
- Run Swift core team meetings. Keep them focused and drive follow-ups
- Route issues directly to the right Apple engineers, skipping management layers when possible
- Manage quarterly Apple syncs with structure and continuity
- Be the front door for Swift adoption outside Apple platforms. Onboard companies, field questions, and build relationships that go somewhere
- Spot partnership and adoption moments and act on them fast. Deepen existing relationships and cultivate new ones. Every company building on cross-platform Swift is a potential contributor back to the infrastructure Dia depends on
- Build demos, write blog posts, run events. Make cross-platform Swift tangible: real working things people can try, not marketing slides
- Show up where developers are stuck. Find what's painful for the community and help fix it

Our take
Web browsers enable people to access all that they want from the internet. However, this tool is often ignored, and despite all the changes to other software over the years, it has remained relatively unchanged. The Browser Company delivers Arc and Dia - new web browsers designed to be faster as well as more personal, focused and creative than traditional options.
Founded in 2019, The Browser Company sees an opportunity to create a browser that excites. Brand dedication for the more common browsers is limited, as they are designed to act in the background. Instead, The Browser Company wants Arc and Dia to act intelligently, visibly overcoming problems like overwhelming hits, online distraction and information being hidden under irrelevant results.
Its competitors of course include some of the biggest names in tech, but it hopes to stand out with a browser that is dramatically new and more powerful, which will earn its own unique space in the market. Arc was released for mobile and Windows in 2024, followed by the AI-focussed Dia in 2025, and they have so-far been met with positive reviews.

Company benefits
- Choose-Your-Own-Compensation Plan: When we give you a job offer, we’ll actually give you two different offers — one that is focused on having a higher salary and one focused on higher equity. Candidates can choose either offer (or any numbers in-between) when they accept.
- Best in the Biz Insurance: We provide employees with full coverage medical, vision, and dental insurance and a free One Medical membership to help you keep you and your family healthy. We cover 100% of employee plan costs and up to 90% for dependents.
- Napping During the Workday: Some of us are better in the mornings, others are more productive in the afternoon. People should take breaks when they need to. If you’re on our team, we trust you to get your work done — our policy is: work when it makes sense for you!
- Take Time Off, Please!: We believe that people do their best work when they’ve rested and had valuable time off. So rather than having a maximum number of days off, we actually have a recommended minimum vacation of 20 days a year. Take time off when you need it and also just when you feel like it.
- Extremely Flexible Parental Leave: We are proud to offer an extremely flexible 12 weeks of parental leave — for any parent regardless of gender and for birth, adoption, surrogacy, or fostering. Take the 12 weeks all at once, or split up days to slowly transition back to work — we’re accommodating to everyone’s different situations! Birth mothers also qualify for an additional 6 weeks of medical leave.
- Design Your Dream Home Office: We are a remote first company. About half of our team currently lives outside of New York and across 5 different time zones. So if you need some stuff to make working from home a bit easier, we offer a $1000 stipend for anything you need to get comfortable.
- Cozy Office in Brooklyn, Wooo!: If you do happen to live in the New York area (or you want an excuse to visit) you can come into our beautiful office in Williamsburg. Coming into office is entirely optional, some of us come almost every day and some of us come in once a week. No obligation, we just genuinely like each other!
